Specific chromatin immunoprecipitation of salt-fractionated infected cell extracts has demonstrated that the CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF), a highly conserved, 11-zinc-finger DNA-binding protein with known roles in cellular and viral genome organization and gene expression, specifically binds the genome of Minute Virus of Mice (MVM).Mutations that di
Characterization of Indicators for Adaptive Human-Swarm Teaming
Swarm Horizontal Diffusion Spray systems consist of large numbers of agents that collaborate autonomously.With an appropriate level of human control, swarm systems could be applied in a variety of contexts ranging from urban search and rescue situations to cyber defence.However, the successful deployment of the swarm in such applications is conditi
Testing of Protective Gas Masks with an Emphasis on Subjective Opinions
This article focuses on the testing and evaluation of gas protective masks based on subjective aspects, since most studies focus on objective indicators without ascertaining the opinions of those who use gas protective masks.Three types of modern anti-gas protective masks were selected for testing.Multi-criteria decision making and the expert metho
